Vincent Roy Margera (July 3, 1956 – November 15, 2015), more commonly known as Don Vito, was an American reality television personality known for his appearances in ''Viva La Bam'', ''Jackass'', ''Haggard'' and the ''CKY videos'' alongside his nephew Bam. == Biography == Margera was born in Chester, Pennsylvania and raised in Concord Township, the son of Darlene (née Stauffer) and Phillip Margera. He was unmarried and lived in a home formerly owned by his brother in West Chester, Pennsylvania, where he had moved in the early 2000s.〔Bams Radio on Sirius XM〕 He became known after appearing as a regular on the MTV television series ''Viva La Bam'', where he was commonly referred to as "Don Vito," a nickname given to him by his nephew Bam. The nickname referred to his near unintelligible speech reminiscent of Don Vito Corleone, of ''The Godfather'', as well as saluting the Margera family's Italian heritage. He had previously appeared in sketches and videos with his family, most of whom were released as part of the CKY series and some later featured in ''Jackass''. As a result of his 2006 arrest, the stunts involving Don Vito were removed from the theatrical and DVD release of ''Jackass Number Two'', but several stunts were briefly shown in previews leading up to his arrest. Due to the allegations, he was persona non grata among the cast for a time, and he also did not appear on Bam's new show, ''Unholy Union'' because of his arrest. However, he was in attendance at Bam's wedding. In early 2007, Don Vito featured in Redman's music video "Put It Down", where he plays a police officer with Donnell Rawlings. March 20, 2007 saw the release of Vito and Ryan Dunn starring in a ''Viva La Bam''-like, direct-to-DVD film, entitled ''Dunn and Vito's Rock Tour''.〔( Dunn & Vito's Rock Tour: Movies & TV: Ryan Dunn,Steve-O,Don Vito ), amazon.com; accessed November 16, 2015.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vincent Margera」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
